Each week I will pick the poster with the best response (as judged by Gekko) to my question. After ten weeks is up, I (or Greg) am going to put each weekly winner's name on a piece of paper, throw them into a hat, and pick an overall winner AT RANDOM. The overall winner will win free entry into the Web Content Panel Draft in March where the format is winner-take-all for a $500 NFBC credit.
Week 1
Question = This player has the best chance to be the 2007 NFBC version of fantasy football’s LaDainian Tomlinson. In other words, this player has the best chance at dominating all other fantasy players and carrying the most NFBC teams into “money” finishes.
Winners = EliGrimmett (Matt Holliday) & duggan (Alfonso Soriano)
Week 2
Question = In 2006 this player hit 15 or less homeruns in the major leagues. In 2007 he hit over 30 homeruns.
Winner = EliGrimmett (Kevin Kouzmanoff)
Week 3
Question = This pitcher never had 20 wins in a season until 2007.
Winners = headhunters (Ervin Santana) & poopy tooth (Jason Schmidt)
Week 4
Question = This player led the Major Leagues in RBI's in 2007.
Winners = poopy tooth and KJ Duke (David Ortiz)
Week 5
Question = This pitcher racked up the most saves for any pitcher who wasn't their team's closer on Opening Day 2007.
Winner = King of Queens (Akinori Otsuka)
Week 6
Question = This team won the 2007 World Series.
Winner = MGBMARTY (Detriot Tigers)
The Week 7 question is a viewer's choice question...This 2007 rookie made the biggest impact in the NFBC.
Message Board Posters...Which 2007 rookie made the biggest impact in the NFBC and why? and why?

Week 7 - Gekko Jeopardy
Who is Alex Gordon?
The Royals are trying to find an inexpensive way to field a team and what better way than to put any high profile, very young players out on the field. It just so happens that Mr. Gordon is a legitimate talent. He will be at least a 20/20 guy in his rookie year while holding down the hot corner for the Royals. Alex will find his way into the top half of the lineup by all star break and will have respectable numbers across the board.
Thanks,
Mudster

Who is Delmon Young?
Young, 21, who will be taken in the top 75 in every NFBC league. Teams are looking for Vladimir Guerrero like numbers, a player who he should someday match talent-wise. The No. 1 overall pick in the 2003 draft, will be a frontrunner for the 2007 Rookie of the Year Award, and when he doesn’t live up to the hype (Which is a given because I have him targeted) he will have the biggest impact on the NFBC.

Week 7 - Gekko Jeopardy
Part I. Who is not Delmon Young or Daisuke Matsuzaka?
These two are most likely to generate the most valuable fantasy stats among rookies, however because they are very likely to only live up to high expectations, or worse, it is unlikely EITHER will have the biggest impact in the NFBC contest.
Rather, a dark horse, a guy that is taken in the final rounds or picked up off the waiver wire is likely to have the biggest impact. That player will provide substantial alpha - enough to turn a top five team into a winning team. This player is likely to be one who generates more fantasy value than "real" value, since a top all-around talent generally take time to develop, and/or will be drafted highly. Accordingly, this year's biggest difference maker will do so in the one of the scarcity categories - he'll be either a big-time basestealer or a suprise closer.
Part II. Who is Michael Bourn or Craig Hansen?
Bourn got in a few games in Sep for PHL and did nothing, but maybe enough of a taste to get over some nerves for next season. But's he's real fast. He stole 45 of 50 across AA/AAA. Also, the Phils will have a high-powered offense, so a speedy tablesetter will score. Batting either second or seventh to start the year will be CF Aaron Rowand. Rowand missed half of last season after trying to run thru a wall. He said he'd do it again with the game on the line. I believe him. He will do it again, and Bourn will get his shot, stealing 25 in half a season after coming off the NFBC waiver wire in July.
Craig Hansen has closer stuff on a team that lacks a closer but will win a lot of games. Pineiro will be tried but fail after a few weeks. A few others will be mixed in for the next few weeks as a "closer by search committee" goes on for a couple more weeks. Hansen will come in for one save opp and look great. Then another, then reel off a string of 7-8 straight and the job will be his. Someone will grab in the 30th round and ride him to 30+ saves.

Week 7 - Gekko Jeopardy
Who is Taylor Tankersley?
Young and Mats are too obvious
League hit 228 against him last year
46 Ks in 41 Ip
1.71 Era on the road
Pitches in pitcher friendly park
Marlins starting rotation though young could rank as one of the top 3 staffs in NL
Marlins year in and year out over achieve
Borowski had 36 saves for them last year
If SPs Willis Olsen Sanchez Johnson with Noalasco as #5 are healthy and and improve on their numbers of last year and Tank learns that he does pitch in a pitcher friendly park which should reduce his home ERA from 4.05 to 3.45 to go with his 1.71 ERA on the road. Prediction of:
39 saves 3.25 ERA 88Ks in 78 IP WHP 1.28

Who is Chris Young (AZ)?
Chris Young is a poor man's (or a smart man's) version of Delmon Young. He has the potential to go 20/30 in 2007 and has shown improving BP/plate discipline numbers in the past 3 years as he's risen from A to AAA. He will open the season in CF and possibly leading off in a vastly improved Arizona lineup. While he'll be a late round choice, he'll be on more winning teams in 2007 than Delmon Young.

Hi KJ,
I was in mgt. consulting for financial services for Deloitte for years, and this last year went over to AMTD to do corporate strategic development (i.e. strategy and M&A). If you go read our last earnings call stuff, I did the iRebal and the QuoteTracker acquisitions...
What are you up to? Are you professionally in stocks?
P.S. Remember bulls and bears make money, pigs get slaughtered . I would sell 1/2 or 2/3rds of the options and take the $ to the bank, but then you still have some upside if things improve. If you only have a couple of weeks of time decay left, I would bank it now!
